Following those impeccable seasons Harvey began to fall off at a drastic rate, posting a 4.86 ERA in less than a hundred innings in 2016 followed by a 6.70 ERA in 2017. While there is strong potential for a resurgent 2019 season there also lies the chance that this could be another critical failure for the LA Angels.
There is already more than plenty of discussion revolving around the 1yr/11mil deal Harvey signed with the Angels, which also includes 3mil worth of incentives. This is a rather friendly contract that sees little risk with the potential for high reward, as Harvey will just be turning 30 during the 2019 season.
